About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, administering medications, playtime, overnight care, crate training support, and maintaining regular routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality, whether that means high-energy exercise, extra patience with shy pets, or senior pet care. I understand the importance of reliability, communication, and providing updates with photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and following specific care instructions, including dietary restrictions, medications, and exercise schedules. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet I care for. With an open schedule, I'm able to give pets plenty of attention, consistent care, and flexible availability for last minute walks, drop ins and overnight stays. I treat all pets as cherished family members and provide attentive, experienced care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. My experience includes caring for senior pets, diabetic pets, and animals with special needs, ensuring they receive compassionate, reliable, and knowledgeable support. I understand that your pets are treasured members of your family, and I care for them with the same patience, respect, and love I would give my own.
“Emma is amazing! As a new pet owner I appreciate that I can count on her to help and she has also been a great source of tips as we get to know our new puppy. Very grateful I found her.”
“We highly recommend Elvia for your cat/house sitting needs! She took care of our cat Dolly and was able to meet all of Dolly’s hands-on needs including a very detailed and intensive feeding protocol. Elvia was very communicative and followed all of our instructions beautifully, and Dolly even began warming up to her despite being a very timid and shy kitty who takes time to trust.”
About: I care for dogs of all different sizes and temperaments and have specialized experience caring for reactive and skiddish doggos. I know how hard it can be but it’s also that much more rewarding. Booking with me you will have peace of mind and your dog will be cared for as if they were my own My schedule is fully flexible so your pets have my complete attention while they are in my care. I try to maintain their typical routine while you’re away to minimize their stress. I provide as much TLC as possible and as a bonus I can reinforce any training you’d like while you’re away. All pups tend to feel very comfortable around me and my experience with even “challenging” temperaments has prepared me to love every unique personality. Regardless of whether you’d like me to spend the night in your home I will be with your dog at least 3 times a day and spend quality time in the home together and exercise outside twice a day in addition to potty breaks

About: Ive been a professional dog walker for 7 years in my neighborhood. Everywhere I go they ask where are the dogs?? Ive had many satisfied clients. I have slots for more dogs daily. Small dogs are my preference since I have in a small area for them to play in. Overnights are fine too. I have a main play room in my space for smaller dogs. Large dogs may need an overnight pen to rest in overnight for dogs over 30 pounds.

About: I am nurturing, very reliable and absolutely adore all of my fur friends! I find so much joy walking with my client's doggos. I take care of them as if they are my own and do my best to honor any and all requests. For doggy daycare and for boarding, I create a safe, relaxing & playful home for your dog with loads of love & snuggles mixed in. I have a 5 yr old cairn terrier who gets along wonderfully with other dogs. My furry friends make themselves right at home in our house and outside in our fully fenced-in backyard. We also live in a safe walkable neighborhood that is very pet-friendly for dog walks. I have been around dogs my whole life but have been professionally walking dogs and boarding dogs part time for about 2 years. I am now looking to expand my clientele and would to love to set up a meet & greet or talk over the phone! **For doggy daycare, please note, I only have dogs that are great around children and other dogs and have updated vaccines.** For doggy daycare, your pup will never be left home alone for more than 2 hours (I can absolutely make accommodations to be home more if requested). I also love to take requests for dog walks M-Th. Pet friends are in a comfortable and loving environment here, free to play & relax indoors or out in our fully fenced yard. Sleeping preference is whatever they like best. We love to play, go for walks and chill with all our doggo friends!
About: Hi there! I’m a certified therapy dog handler with over 13 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. My lifelong passion for animals began when I was a little girl, and it’s grown into a fulfilling career centered on compassion, connection, and trust. I’ve worked in a doggy daycare known as Paws of Greenwich, volunteered with Adopt-A-Dog, and have hands-on experience with basic training—especially with rescue dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. Having cared for three amazing dogs of my own (two of them rescues), I know how important it is to find someone who treats your pup like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, your dog will always feel safe, loved, and cared for in my hands. 🐾 I’m currently a full-time dog sitter, dedicated to providing the highest level of care, attention, and love for your pets. Whether your pup enjoys outdoor adventures or cozy days at home, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. From scenic hikes and fun outings to quality playtime and cuddles, your dog will always feel happy, safe, and loved. Meet-and-greet fees: $25–$30 I will always follow any specific guidelines you have for your pet to ensure their routine and comfort are maintained. Typically, I take dogs outside at least three to four times a day, unless discussed otherwise or we’ve already enjoyed a long outdoor adventure that day. I’m happy to handle feeding, bathing, and any other needs for only $5-10 on top of the total cost, and will always making sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and endlessly loved.
“While my pet boarding plans got cancelled due to alternate personal reasons , from the time of requesting boarding , Lukas was super communicative and very flexible with pickup /drop-off timings.

“Elizabeth is a wonderful Dogwalker. She is prompt and informative so that I have Mo 🐶 ready to go. Elizabeth made sure that Mo was comfortable as he is a senior citizen. There were water stops along the way, which was important due to extraordinarily hot & humid 🥵 week. Elizabeth even showed up in the rain ☔️ on our last day. 💫 I received 2 to 3 📸 on each walk for 7 full days☺️. Elizabeth is truly a professional delight. Very highly recommended; 10 out of 10. This a service I enjoy part of vacation as I travel. One good long walk first thing daily supported by a good Dogwalker and then I can fill in with smaller walks, especially while we are busy visiting family and friends. Thank you so much, Elizabeth! 🤩”

About: I’m a caring, reliable dog lover with hands on experience raising my own Maltese and Yorkie. I understand the attention, patience, and consistency dogs need, especially smaller breeds. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs while they’ve been away, handling feeding, walks, and daily routines. It’s helped me build trust and confidence in caring for dogs in others’ homes. I enjoy long walks around Harbor Point and always prioritize your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m available on weekdays after 3:30 PM due to a school schedule, with increased flexibility during school breaks and throughout the summer. Occasional weekend availability. I always prioritize safety, trust, and your dog’s routine when caring for pets in your home. I follow all instructions closely, make sure your dog is safely leashed before walks, and stay attentive to our surroundings at all times. I also take care when entering and leaving your home by checking doors and gates, and I always treat your space with respect. Every dog is cared for with the same compassion and reliability I give my own.
“Michelle did so great with Zephyr! We were so worried about having to leave him alone all day for the first time. He's only 8 months old, so we really needed to break up his alone time. I was so nervous, but Michelle made everything so much better! Zephyr had the best time with her and we are definitely going to have her back!”
About: I have taken care of several dogs in the past of different ages. This care has included walks, dog sitting overnight and drop in’s. Some of the dogs have required medication and specialized diets. I am currently in a masters program for Occupational Therapy. I am available Monday-Thursday in the morning, Friday nights and Saturday-Sunday all day. I am near some parks with lots of grassy areas and am in a good neighborhood. I will make sure to be attentive to their needs, give them affection and keep them safe during our outings. I will abide by food restrictions and will adjust locations of walks depending on if the dogs are dog friendly/aggressive.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old and picked out the cutest black Lab/ border Collie mix named Memphis. Growing up with dogs and living with dogs has been such an important part of my life. My Mom even says I love dogs more than her! Friends have trusted me to take their dogs on walks, house-sit and just go over for some play-time. I'm currently working part-time on my next venture and can work from anywhere! This means my time is very flexible and can help out during all hours of the week. I consider myself a very caring and detail oriented person. I will care for your pets as if they were my own, per your instructions. I also pride myself on being a very clean individual and will take great care of your home.
